The account tweeted photos of Prince Andrew from his youth and said, “#OnThisDay in 1960 The Queen was safely delivered of a son, the first child born to a reigning Monarch since 1857.” However, users were not pleased with the tweet due to Prince Andrew’s connection with Jeffrey Epstein and he was forced to retire from royal duties last year.

One user wrote that the world didn’t need to be reminded of Prince Andrew’s birthday since he was no longer working with the Royal Family. Do we really need to be reminded about Prince Andrew? He is no longer a working royal so let him stay out of sight and mind.” the tweet said.
Why is it that I never hear the same shrieks for this one to lose his title and reimburse the British taxpayer as I do regarding the two living in California? Although, they’re not anywhere near as bad as him so I guess it’s incomparable. Still speaks volumes about the public.

When will Sweaty Andy be made to face US federal investigators? How deep was his relationship with the known paedophile Jeffrey Epstein? I pay taxes that fund the lifestyle of the Windsors. Why should I fund paedophilia?
